Electromechanisms/Devices attempts to present such devices as motors, generators, relays, solenoids and other selected topics in a simple and direct manner. The materials are presented in an action-oriented format combining many of the features normally found in a textbook with those usually associated with a laboratory manual. An Instructor's Data Guide is available.

This manual, along with the others in the Electromechanical Technology Series, is the result of six years of research and development by TERC, a national nonprofit, public service corporation with headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It has undergone a number of revisions as a direct result of experience gained with students in technical schools and community colleges throughout the country.
